dc.description.abstractThe consequences of the simplifying assumption of independence of symptoms are examined by considering a data base of cardiovascular disease patients. A mathematical model based on Bahadur's expansion (16) is used for quantification of nonindependence. It is shown that small symptom dependencies are sufficient to cause a substantial increase over the minimum misclassification rate. Incorporation of symptom interactions by use of Fisher's linear discriminant function, optimum tree dependence models (21), and Bahadur's expansion is also discussed.en_US
